I would check the passenger side i/c boots and take a look at your up-pipe connection to the collector behind the turbo. Here is what the leak will look like at the collector. It is out of a van but it will give you an idea.

thnaks for the advice. I was informed today by someone that because of the drop in temerature and the cold air it will make this sound. I thought they were crazy but i have heard crazier things. Im going to check the uppipe tomorrow,.
